REVIEWER IN PROF ISSUE FINALS Advanced Aplications 1. Online registrations for schools during enrollments. 2. E-learning systems to complete and submit assignments online, such as the eLMS portal; and 3. The use of Facebook to stay connected with friends and family, Instagram for uploading images, and Spotify and Apple Music for streaming music. Application software - Application software allows the user to accomplish tasks such as creating documents, encoding data in a spreadsheet, or messaging a friend. Components of information System - 01 Artificial Intelligence - Al is a science of allowing information technologies to simulate human intelligence, such as reasoning and learning, and gaining sensing capabilities, such as seeing, hearing, or feeling human experiences. Office Automation Systems - These support a wide range of predefined day-to-day work activities of individuals and businesses. Such systems include word processors (Microsoft Word), spreadsheets (Microsoft Excel), presentation software (Microsoft PowerPoint). Speech recognition - makes it possible for computers and smartphones to understand speech and vocabulary. Speech recognition technology can be helpful for users with a disability, medical professionals, airplane pilots, factory workers whose hands get too dirty for keyboards, and mobile users who would prefer not to type while walking or driving Confidence - Reasonable confidence reassures and motivates other people by boosting the ability to influence and lead. principles of professionals at work - Professionalism is about having an informed, ethical and strategic approach to work for the greater good and the wider benefit. (Optional) Ethical Responsibilities - Acquiring new technology can have a powertul effect on human behavior as it offers new and advanced capabilities. (Optional) difficult people - In almost every workplace, there are always unhappy employees that feel frustrated or those that are unwilling to welcome change and new activities. avoid harm - "Harm" means causing adverse consequences, such as undesirable loss of information, physical or mental injury, loss of property, and unjustified damage to property, reputation, and the environment. Phishing - refers to luring users to log onto a fake website that appears real to gather sensitive information. Biometrics - It assures good security as an individual's physical and behavioral traits are permanent and unique. Cyber Protection - It combines the benefits of data protection and cyber security needed for business operations in the current cyber threat landscape. Social Responsibilities - is an ethical theory where individuals are accountable for fulfilling a civic duty that benefits society. Data protection - Most of the public wants their online data and information to be private and secure. Working with the personal information of partners, clients or stakeholders requires covering the bases and confirming the structural soundness of the network, prevention of cybersecurity breaches, and transparency with them. patent trolling - deals when a massive company purchases patents in the market instead of creating their own for their products and services. xCures' Beat-19 - study, an Al-fueled company that matches cancer patients and their oncologists with optimal investigational or approved therapies. Edelman Trust Barometer - Edelman Trust Barometer in 2020, an annual trust and credibility survey on data protection, showed that 60% of the respondents say that the pace of change in tech is too fast, while 57% think social media platforms are filled with untrustworthy information. Environment and Sustainability - With technological progress, a future in which electronic waste or e-waste becomes a much bigger problem is possible. It is responsible to dispose of devices and electronic wastes in their appropriate bins. Human Safety - It is a responsibility to protect public safety, health, and welfare with every new system and technology. Pro Bono publico - It means "for the public good" in Latin. It is a responsibility to share knowledge and skills in technology through voluntary participation in seminars, conferences, advisory groups, and one-on-one consultations for those who are not privileged enough to access nor pay for them. Adverse effects of information system and technology - Given the broad scope of information systems and their application, here are some of the adverse effects of information systems and technology. (Optional) Emotional Intelligence - deals with the proper management and expression of emotions as well as the emotions of others Creative Problem Solving - As robots do not understand human psychology as humans can, creative problem-solving, like what product designers, advertisers, and marketers do, is unlikely, as it also means resolving employee conflict, meeting a client's goals, or adjusting to internal workflow processes. Lack of Job Security - With information systems and technology in place, companies compete to retain their edge against other companies by automating several business processes resulting in layoffs from the workforce. Secuirty Issues - With the increase in cyber threats over the years, various security issues are bound to happen to anyone. Cost Cutting - Cost-cutting is an effective tool that decreases a company's expenses and maximizes profits. Wearable - Several smartphone functions, such as messaging, phone calls, and social media, would be better if they were easily worn onto people's bodies. It is called "wearable," with products such as Apple Watch and Huawei Wearables as examples. Autonomous - Devices that operate themselves to perform specific functions are developed through the combination of software, sensors, and location technologies. The output varies from medical nanotechnology robots (nanobots) to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
